Shiju Radhakrishnanand Nisanth Kumar started their entrepreneurial journey in 2012 when they founded iTraveller - an online travel planning application that enabled customers to customize and book their holidays. In 2018, iTraveller’s story took an interesting turn when it got noticed by lastminute.com - the European OTA giant was looking to enter the Indian market and decided to acquire iTraveller.com.
Once bit by the entrepreneur bug, there is no going back. By early 2020, Shiju & Nisanth once again found themselves consumed by an idea that needed innovation. This later evolved into unremot. The independent consultants struggle to manage their client meeting requests, scheduling, and payments, surviving the broken experiences through multiple products. unremot is a business-in-a-box solution that provides a personal office to consultants that allows their clients to discover, request, schedule, pay and conduct meetings in a jiffy - all in one place. It combines online discovery, calendar, payments, and video conferencing into one screen and leverages a discovery-driven community interface.
unremot is a 20 member fully remote team, led by Shiju Radhakrishnan, Nisanth Kumar, Binse Abraham, Avanti Shukla and Thahir Backer. The team has previously worked together in the past, before being acquired and taking their exits.
Since 18 months of launch in Feb 2020, unremot has; 14000+ monthly active users, 40000+ monthly visitors, 80% organic users & network growth enabled and users from 52+ countries with 70% from the US, Canada, UK, Australia & Germany.
“Our driving force for being entrepreneurs is to build a product and watch users love it. The journey from iTraveller to unremot is a testament to this pursuit. With unremot, we aspire to become a go-to place for consultants who conduct back to back client meetings and bring together 25 million users on unremot in the next 5 years.”, said Shiju Radhakrishnan, Founder & CEO, unremot.
"The past 2 years have taught us how much business can be done remotely, and how relationships can be forged and developed with meaning and purpose without meeting face-to-face. What excites us about unremot is their belief that professional meetings can happen in this manner, where services are exchanged in the same way as in a walk-in or scheduled office meeting, with the same experience and the same expectations, including payment for services, and with discoverability. This we feel is the future of work", stated Sunil Sharma, Managing Director of Techstars Toronto.
"Backed by a strong team, unremot is well placed and has the potential to become The-Go-To place for everyone's virtual office. A large user base and multiple revenue streams makes it an attractive business opportunity.”, stated Hemant Thite, Venture Partner, ah! Ventures.
unremot aspires to reach 1 Mn users by the end of 2022, 5 Mn by 2023 and 25 Mn by 2025. To fuel this growth, unremot is targeting to raise a larger $2 Mn round at the end of the Techstars program.
